Fox Meadow

The Physical Education Department at Fox Meadow is dedicated to teaching our students how their bodies move, how to perform a variety of physical activities and the importance of physical fitness. Students at FM learn the health-related benefits of regular physical activity and the skills to adopt a physically active, healthy lifestyle. We strive to provide learning experiences that meet the developmental needs of all students, in a fun, safe and encouraging way. We create and foster a learning environment that allows students to take risks, demonstrate leadership, set, achieve, and maintain fitness goals and explore and discover movement using critical and creative thinking skills. We follow the Physical Education Curriculum Models that include, Sport Education, Skill Themes, Personal and Social Responsibility, Project Adventure and Movement Education.

Our curriculum is unique and diverse. We select activities and instruct movement experiences that are designed to challenge the body and mind of each student. We discuss the importance of exercise and it's relationship to brain function, develop each students understanding of resiliency and level of teamwork in group settings and provide an opportunity for students to explore, create and share thoughts and ideas with one another. We enhance our practice and instructional methods through the use of technology and teacher collaboration.
